Decided to meet up with an old friend for breakfast on my way out of town. They made the…read morerecommendation, and thankfully, I was not disappointed. It was the weekend and breakfast appeared to be served all day. The menu is old-school and no-nonsense -- simple diner staples and exactly the kind of items you would expect from a place like this. The food itself was excellent and easily the highlight of the visit. There is not much in the way of ambiance, and the restaurant itself is fairly small, so it can get loud when busy. That said, the service was quick and genuinely friendly. Overall, a solid classic breakfast spot that focuses more on good food than atmosphere -- and honestly, that works just fine here.

My hamburger was way overcooked and dry. The hashbrowns were very good. The pie wasn't good at all. Maybe it was old but 2 bites and we were done. It started filling up as we left.

Absolute best thing to eat after a long weekend camping trip. After eavesdropping on a local tour…read moreguide on the best local restaurants to visit and researching online, Jj's Diner has been mentioned multiple times. To refuel both my energy and hunger level, the double cheeseburger was very enticing (no regrets have been made). The buns were nice and soft. Patties were juicy and seared nicely with the ideal crust, and the gooey cheddar cheese was possibly the best thing about this burger. Fries were also good and salted pretty nice.. could use a bit more crunch to it. Malt melted a bit too fast in the heat but nevertheless, the chocolate flavored dessert was delicious. Good to note that I had also tried my friend's cheese curds, I believe, and they were uniquely delicious with the seasoning, flavorfully on par with the cheeseburger. Be sure to try them out.

I ordered the double cheeseburger special with bacon and I was pleasantly surprised (I was expecting McDonalds but they exceeded my expectations with a restaurant quality burger), then I ordered a cookie dough cyclone and it too was delicious. My family commended the Chili Dogs, the Pizza Burger, the Fish Sandwich, as well as the Cheese Curds (aka Cheddar Crisps or whatever they're called). Absolutely would eat here again, in fact, I think it's going to be the go-to spot for food in Luverne. Color me impressed!

My boyfriend and I decided to dine here last night before a country concert. Our reservation was at…read more5pm and boy am I glad we had reservations two hours before the concert because this place was not ready for the crowd they were about to receive. I did appreciate that we were seated right away (reservations took priority over walk ins) but it took about 10 minutes before we were handed waters and menus. It then took 30 minutes before we received our appetizer to which we were then told the rest of our food was done at the same time. Typically, I don't prefer to eat my appetizer at the same time as my entree, but in this case I worried with how slow of service we were receiving I wouldn't see my entree for another hour. Almost all of our food was amazing. I ordered a house salad and the Fillet of Beef with mashed potatoes. My boyfriend ordered the chicken and wild rice soup and the prime rib. He said the prime rib wasn't anything to write home about but it did the job. Overall, service was slow but everyone was super nice. I think they just need to hire a few more people which I know is difficult to do. I really hope this place can find the help they need because the food is so good and I want to see this place continue to succeed.
